Version control: delete branches after merging?
- by Nathan Long
When you branch some code, finish working with the branch, and merge it back to the trunk, what do you do with the branch? Delete it from the repository? Keep it for reference?
It seems like you would keep it for reference, but I imagine the /branches directory could get pretty cluttered.
(If this isn't something people generally agree on, please comment and I'll make it a community wiki.)
